Darrelle Revis turned himself in to authorities Friday after the New York Jets cornerback was charged with four felonies and a misdemeanor stemming from an altercation in Pittsburgh last weekend.
Here’s a video of Revis turning himself in to Pittsburgh police.
Revis was accompanied by his mother, aunt and attorney Blaine Jones, according to Andrew Goldstein of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
“He wanted to turn himself in,” Jones said. “He didn’t want to be a fugitive from the law. He wanted to make this happen.”
Jones is removing himself from the case after the pre-trial hearing according to ESPN’s Coley Harvey, but he believes Revis has a good chance to be vindicated.
“Based on the investigating that I’ve done and the private investigator that works for my firm has done … I think that he has a very promising case,” Jones said, per Goldstein.
Revis had an arraignment hearing and was released with multiple stipulations.
Darrelle Revis preliminary hearing set for Thursday Feb 23rd in Pittsburgh. Ordered to have no contact with witnesses or victims.
